White was charged with second-degree kidnapping, first-degree coercion and criminal contempt, all felonies; and a misdemeanor count of third-degree assault. He was arraigned and pleaded not guilty in city court and sent to the Rensselaer County Jail without bail, Frankoski said.

White had an outstanding arrest warrant after he was involved in a domestic incident where he forced a woman he knows into a vehicle, left the scene and allegedly physically assaulted her, Frankoski said. She was let out of the vehicle after a short time and returned home.
